Destiny's Tears: Zykovian's Sidetrack

[Keia]

"And we can reduce the overall risk by taking the most valuable items first, then everything else," Zykovian offered. He pulled out a sheet of paper and wrote a quick note, authorizing Lyveria to move his things from the flat to the Laughing Sail, just in case it was needed.

OOC: So what's the cost on the flat - and are we certain to be leaving today or tomorrow?

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: It is rented out in periods of 1 year for 7,500 credits or 10 years for 60,000 credits. This can either be paid up front, or you can pay at least 55% up front and then the remainder in increments of 5% every 1/10 of the total term. Every additional 5% paid up front delays the payment by 1/10 of the total term.

Certain to be leaving for Varylys today or tomorrow you mean? It isn't clear that this is so, but if you don't leave some time this day, you almost certainly won't be catching the comet in time to help poor Mhrazhar)

"Certainly. That seems a logical decision."

 

[Keia]

OOC: Then, hopefully Melody has rounded up a ship and everything Yeah . . . far too many credits for my meager amount remaining.

Zykovian gave a final pause as he looked through the only home he'd known the past couple of months . . . he was sad to see it go. "Be sure to search the place thoroughly, I don't want to leave anything behind that's mine." Zykovian offered a long warm hug to Lyveria, and with a final glance over the place, headed out to the convocation.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: If you gave less to the Mojiin, you probably could have managed the ~4000 down payment for a year, but no good deed goes unpunished, right? )


"I am...sorry that you are losing your home, Zykovian. I am not sure that I understand exactly what it is like, for I have not really had a place I call home, unless perhaps you count where I lived with my master."

 

[Keia]

OOC: Yeah, I've got to go back and refigure just how much money I have left - I may want to get something before heading out . . . if I can afford it. 10,000 credits - 1,000 Eloquence - 400 Eloquence (for lyveria) - 115 last night - 4,000 to Mhrazhar - ??? = 4,485 credits remain.

"Well, Lyv, if you have been here with me the last few months . . . maybe this would have been home to you too," Zykovian offered. "I know I considered it your home, too, the last few days."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"I suppose so. I guess it is just hard to consider a place home after only staying in the location for such a temporary span of time. Had I been here for several months straight, perhaps I would feel the same way, or perhaps I am just designed differently."

(OOC: I don't remember how much he gave to Mhrazhar actually, but I think it was probably just a tad too much to pay for the flat. I may, however, be wrong. If he is incredibly close, he may be able to try to sweet-talk them into accepting very slightly less and then the entirity of the difference along with the next payment in about a month.)

 

[Keia]

OOC: Well, it looks like he has 4,485 credits left based on my calculation above. Zykovian still needs to stop by the guard station and pick up the bounty he earned on the Rosethornes. And Fedowin owes him some money. If he would have been successful in that bounty last night with both the removal of the threat and the reason for her going bonkers, he would have probably had enough cash.

"Well, there's only one way to find out, isn't there," Zykovian replied, smiling. "Unfortunately, I can't afford this place at the moment, especially with us leaving for a couple weeks. Sure am going to miss it."

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: 4,500 is 60% of 7,500, so he would be able to pay the total up front payment and even avoid payment for two and a half months more if he was willing to use all his money )

"That is a terrible shame, Zykovian...I can tell you love this place..." Lyveria pauses as if considering something before continuing, "You know, Plebs are actually pretty valuable on the open market..."

 

[Keia]

OOC: Yeah . . . then it's just a matter of getting the money to them . OF course, if Melody needs the money to get an upgrade to the ship so that we can actually catch the others, then that's where the money has to go - (Zykovian is far too kind hearted ).

Zykovian gave Lyveria a stern look, "No. That's not going to happen, I don't sell women, and I'm not selling you, my dear."

OOC2: That reminds me, Zykovian needs to pick up a Repair Scroll or two as well so that he can learn the spell, repair light damage and maybe even repair moderate damage when he gets to that level.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: See? No good deed goes unpunished )

*Lyveria nods.*

"I just wanted you to know that it would be okay with me if you wanted to do so...I would...understand."

(OOC2: Sure. You could actually buy them for slightly cheaper on Varylys too if you were willing to wait for them)
